- with Ross Roche

Ever since Erasmus' infamous video criticising Australian ref Nic Berry during the British and Irish Lions series in 2021 became public, and which led to the first of two suspensions by World Rugby, the South African coach, and by association the Boks in general, have not been viewed favourably by the top rugby body.

Being passed over this season, after leading the Boks to 11 wins from 13 matches, is a big surprise.
